Colchester Do164 is an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting held every Tuesday at 7.15pm at the Quaker Meeting House, 6 Church Road, Colchester. It runs for an hour and a half and is a closed meeting, which means it is reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking, whether they have years of sobriety behind them or are walking in for the very first time. There is nothing to sign up for and no one to notify in advance; you simply turn up. The venue is wheelchair accessible and has provision for people with hearing difficulties, making it one of the more accessible meeting spaces in town. Arriving a few minutes before the start gives you a chance to say hello before things begin.
